Editorial Review: Product Description: Nikon is proud to announce the arrival of the Coolpix P80, one of the most compact cameras in its category. Built to satisfy the needs of camera enthusiasts and family photographers alike, the Coolpix P80 comes with a 10-megapixel CCD sensor and a Nikkor 18x zoom for wide angle photography, as well as a lens construction including 4 aspheric lenses, enabling you to focus more acutely without altering the colour and format of your subjects. The Coolpix P80 is equipped with a mechanical vibration reduction (VR) system to ensure steady and still shots by compensating for camera movement, and 3-Incamera technology made up of face-priority AF, red-eye correction and D-lighting, guaranteeing quality images no matter what the conditions. Face-priority AF automatically finds and focuses on faces within a frame, providing faster and sharper results; red-eye correction automatically detects and corrects red eyes, a common problem that occurs in flash photography; and D-Lighting compensates for excessive backlighting or insufficient flash in images. The Coolpix P80 also has a light sensitivity range of up to 6400 ISO in 3-megapixel mode, so you can capture photos in lower lighting conditions. Nikon has incorporated all its user-friendly innovations into the Coolpix P80, making taking photos easier and more intuitive.

Well i was firstly interested in the Digital SLR camera, but as per my occassional usage i chose to go for a semi professional cam. I hunted for many cams, but my eyes were stuck on NIKON COOLPIX P-80. I've used it the next day itself in a ceremony and it worked out to be magnificent and above all its features & functions are marvelous and extremely fantastic. I could have got a small & nice digi-cam for about lesser price than this but after viewing the features of this camera i thought let me pay a lil bit more and get this cam. But now after using it i'll say its not about the lil bit more price its all about the quality. And guys mark my words this is the best of the best price somebody can really afford for a cam. Its ISO is the best of all even in the low light and the lens's mega pixel and the picture quality has proven its intelligence with brilliant performance. I am fond of zoom as well so here it is guys 18x optical, what else u need man. Although this is my first cam, it is outstanding & hillarious. I would strictly recommend this camera to those who are fond of clear and fully pixeled photography on an important function or occassion and even for daily basis use. Rating: - Just the Thing for a Quick Trip to Europe!I like this camera! I just returned from a three-week trip to Italy, Holland, and London, and I found my Nikon P80 to be easy to manage, after several readings of the manual. Not too small, the P80 fits comfortably into my hands and does not wobble as the smaller cameras tend to do. Although I do miss taking splendid photos with my 1974 Rollei SLR with the three lenses and polarizer, I do not miss the weight, the limitations of rolls of film, and the encumbrances of all the accompanying paraphernalia. I especially like the P80 because it is inconspicuous, and one can get candid shots of street life without being intrusive. The easily managed diopter allowed me to use the viewfinder without my glasses. The monitor made it easy to view photos quickly; and the battery charger worked splendidly (I took two Nikon batteries, and charged one every night.). I was also pleasantly surprised at the macro feature which allowed me to copy family photos from my brother-in-law's album, which were taken in the 1940s and '50s. As other reviewers have suggested, reading the manual is indispensable, but one ought not to be tied to it. For instance, I discovered that in the northern latitudes with their bright autumn light, so beloved by the Dutch painters, the "sunset" setting worked better than the automatic, or even the plain "landscape" settings (I didn't care much for the automatic setting which tended to over-expose the pictures). I also experimented ...

I wish i had stuck to this philosophy with this camera. I bought it on the basis of its new supersensor which Nikon described as giving superlative results and also to take photos of white eagles in Norway using the long zoom. The zoom is fine. What is not acceptable is the amount of noise even at iso 100, it is unacceptable, other much cheaper compacts from Olympus (SP350) produce outstanding results much better than this. The macro facility is a joke, it does not focus at all in some cases. I cant use the flash with aperture priority unless i reset the cameras settings to factory settings. The lens cap is too loose fittting-i have already lost it, there is a cord to tie it onto the camera with but this just gets in the way. There is excessive curvature of the horizon with this lens-something that compacts seem to produce. But most disappointing is the noise levels and for that i would describe this camera as not even being fit for purpose. This camera is (expensive)rubbish not even worth one star, and being my first Nikon camera it will also be my last. Avoid. Rating: - Top digital compact camera!I use this camera every day - I go nowhere without it. As a pro photographer, I started using compact cameras two years ago, when I got tired of hauling heavy pro equipment around with me while on vacation. My first compact cameras - the Nikon S-10 and the Nikon D-70 - were good, but not perfect. When I saw this camera's specs, I bought it without hesitation, and wow, I am impressed! It does EVERYTHING one would expect a compact camera to do with ease, and much more. It is easy to use, It is light. It comes packed with features. The auto-programs and auto-white balance are spot-on. Focusing is quick and silent. The zoom is excellent, and the min f-stops are impressive throughout the focal range. All of this at an unbelievable price! You simply can't go wrong in buying this camera. If you know my reviews on this and other sites, you will know that I don't easily award more than three stars to a product. This camera deserves its five stars - it is easily the single best online purchase I've made all year! Rating:  - Just not good enoughI have been using this for two months now it is my second digital camera my first being the fuji finepix E900. I bought this as a step up from the E900 but have been disappointed, I chose Nikon because I have several film SLRs and have thought them very good. I wanted a veiwfinder so I didn't have to rely on the screen in bright sunlight but you still can't see in bright sunlight also when you zoom in and out it jumps in steps rather than a smooth movement making things differcult to frame exactly not as good as the fuji. When you make prints they are okay if you don't enlarge them too much but use the highest megapixal setting for best result. I think its best point is the macro facilty which is quite good. It is expensive for the results you get twice the price of the fuji but no better quality. Nikon_Coolpix_P80_DigitalNikon Coolpix P80 Digital Camera - Black (10.0MP, 18x Optical Zoom) 2.7" LCD | |
